THE SHIP'S LOG SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Four years ago we, the Class of '41, entered in force into Hoagland High as green little freshies. Our regiment consisted of thirty-nine, along the Way we picked up Emma lean lmler, and lost Don Lytle. Officers were Cora lane Emenhiser, President, Oris Cagnet, Secretary, and Iim Marquardt, Treasurer. Mr. Alger was our class sponsor. In the course of the year we held two merry class parties, both at school. ln the Sophomore year we lost quite a number of classmates: Bill France, Dorothy Bishop, Leona Weigman, Gerald Bohrbach, Raymond Hockemeyer, Raymond Scheumann, Robert Scheumann, Robert Hoffman, and Paul Scharp- enberg but gained Dorothy Nagel and Gerald Hisner. Our class officers were Floyd Hart, Ioan Gable, and Mary Louise Youse. Mrs. Sheehan was sponsor. One party was held at school, the other at the home of Gertrude Hake. The girls won the interclass tourney. ln the fall of 1939 Bill Votaw joined us, Dorothy Bishop returned, but we lost Donald Hoffman, Ruth Weitfeldt, Louise Boerger, and lack Wolf. Later lean lmler left us to be married. Our class sponsor was Miss Thomas. Bill Votaw, Mary Louise Youse, and Dorothy Nagel were class officers. Our class parties were at school. Helen Oehler and Marcella Bearman were selected for yell leaders. At Christmas time we were deeply grieved by the death of lack Wolf. In the spring we presented Early to Bed and Early to Rise. Again the girls wonthe interclass tourney. To entertain the graduates of '40, we held a banquet at the Woman's Club, and later attended a movie. We've reached the goal at last-Seniors! This year Cupid made his debut in the classy Dorothy Bishop, Marcella Bearman, and Beulah Ehrhart left us to be married. We also lost Norma Gaskill and Glen Flora but Owen Ake joined us. Paul Veit, Oris Cagnet, and Ralph Frederick were elected class officers, Miss Thomas remained our sponsor. November 27 we presented Mystery at Midnight. February 12 a majority of the class participated in the operetta Magazine Princess. The boys were victorious in the tournament and the girls also won for the third time. As the time grows shorter we become more serious. Twelve years we've waited the time when our graduation would come and now that it's almost upon us, we hesitate. We've chosen our caps and gowns, flowers, colors, and a motto that always has been and always will be fitting with the class of '4l: Forward ever, backward never! SENIOR CLASS POEM Although the grade was steep we've reached the top, Step by step and hand in hand we've come. Each lesson that we've learned along the way Will add to our achievements' total sum. Many happy moments we'll remember During the hard climb up the hill of years, And looking backward down life's rough pathway, Perhaps our eyes will fill with wistful tears. Moments there are of triumph and sorrow, Moments dear to hold in fond embrace Against the mighty ravages of morrow, Some word or deed, some lesson, thought, or face. Needless now to name each Visage fair Of every worthy classmate on our roll. Some characteristic of each one Has made it's subtle imprint on our soul. Though now our paths divide and wander on, Progress' will always be our one endeavor, And in the face of obstacles will shine Our motto, Forward ever, backward never. 13
